I never thought about learning Esperanto before, but I looked through this thread and had a look at Lernu.
I have to agree that it's very addictive. I went through the first ten lessons of Bildoj kaj Demandoj, and I have to say Esperanto is very refreshing in comparison with natural languages (especially the phonology). Mi estas studento. (lol) Maybe I'll actually start studying it. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

You could try doing Gerda Malaperis again, since you're probably at least at intermediate now.
You should. The Esperanto community is probably the most welcoming language community out there. Just look at Everything's experience: he got several Esperantists and Esperanto students offering him advice and encouragement.

That's awesome! Assimil should have taught you around 1500 words, which is A LOT in Esperanto. Now, all that's left to do is to use the language. Read websites or books, write messages, start using it in conversations and you will quickly acquire any words you're missing. For example, set your browser homepage to http://nunonia.com/ to get a daily dose of news in Esperanto. More links for using Esperanto can be found at http://how-to-learn-any-language.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?T ID=29046 or http://how-to-learn-any-language.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?T ID=6353 If you want, I can give you a quick evaluation over Skype. Send me a pm. 4 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

The Esperanto Association of Flanders just made some high-quality Esperanto ebooks
available for free. These normally sell in their online store. http://www.ipernity.com/doc/flandra_esperanto-ligo/album/179 889 Includes the easy reader "Ĉu rakonti novele?" by Johano Valano aka Claude Piron, which might be interesting for you, or the translation of "The Count of Monte Cristo". I also really enjoyed reading "Flugi kun kakatuoj", a historic novel focussing on the culture of Australian aboriginal people. 3 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

I know I've seen lots of negative opinions of Assimil's Esperanto course, but it seems like most of it is complaining about the audio and the first few lessons. If you look at it without the audio past the first few lessons, is the course that bad? 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Everything, On the large photo there are two pictures of Ludoviko Zamenhof on the right and his wife Klara Zilbernik on the left.

Later on it teaches quite a few expressions that I never heard before (sayings) and the language generally feels textbookish. Once you know the basics, you'd be much better off talking to people, or listening to Esperanto radio. 1 person has voted this message useful |
